Which is exactly the beauty of the Trans Texas Corridors. Having the state build new double track, and then charging the railroads, and I mean any, a fee to use the new fast double freight tracks. No more little monopolies. <br /> <br />Toyota to build a new truck plant in San Antonio. The land chosen is close to UP tracks. However, Toyota wanted at least 2 railroads nearby to choose from. Enter BNSF, they will build a branch to the new site. There would be no need to build a new branch if UP would have allowed any other railroad to service the Toyota truck plant. But nnoooooo, not on our tracks. Nevermind the fact that San Antonio is a fast growing city with a closed air force base. Looks as if San Antonio needs Toyota more than UP....
